Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor: G Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.

G Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may be wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. However, never use alcohol, solvents or ammonia-based liquids. G Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in this manual. G The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel. G Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat source. G Remove any object that could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s electronics. G Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet. G Keep the monitor dry.

To avoid electric shock, do not expose it to rain or excessive moisture. G When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible. G If turning off the monitor by detaching the power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds before attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation. G To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the monitor to rain or excessive moisture. G IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your application. If a still image in high contrast remains on the screen for an extended period of time, it may leave an 'after-image' or 'ghost image' on front of the screen.

This is a well-known phenomenon that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in LCD technology. In most cases, the after-image will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been switched off. Be aware, that the after- image symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty. Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when the operating instructions given in this manual have been followed.
